I am using the Parallel Forkmanager routine and would like to be able to update a few hashes as I progress in the program. The only way I have figured out how to do this is to print a file of the information I want to add to the hash (from inside the child process) and then at the conclusion of the run open the file, read in the print, and add it to the hash. I would think that there would be a better way to do this. Any input?
